Basa-Palmayo Campus, PhilSCA โ August 2025. The AMT Student Organization (AMTSO) held its official online interview meeting on August 13, 2025, via Google Meet, as part of the preparations for the upcoming student elections. The activity provided an avenue for the candidates to introduce themselves, present their advocacies, and respond to questions that assessed their readiness and commitment to lead.
For the position of 1st Year Representative, two independent candidates stepped forward to present their plans for their fellow first-year students. Their platforms revolved around strengthening academic support, encouraging inclusivity, and fostering a more engaged AMT community. Among the initiatives they proposed were tutorial programs, aviation simulator training opportunities, and the implementation of anonymous feedback through a โBlack Box Initiative.โ They also emphasized the importance of accessible information through bulletin and schedule boards, providing resource guidelines tailored for first-year students, and holding regular feedback sessions to ensure that student voices are consistently heard.
On the other hand, the REVIVE Partylist introduced its candidates for the remaining AMTSO positions. Their collective platforms emphasized unity and cooperation among students, increased participation in organizational activities, and the prioritization of student welfare across all levels. The slate highlighted their vision of a more active, connected, and supportive AMTSO community that will serve as a strong pillar for academic and personal growth.
The interview proceedings were facilitated by the Supreme Student Council (SSC), headed by President Kurt Franco together with other SSC members, who guided the flow of the program. To uphold fairness, transparency, and integrity, the Commission on Student Election (COMSELEC) was also present, represented by Chairwoman Kim David and Commissioner Carl Kevin M. Inovejas of the Board of Screening. Both officials posed formal questions to the candidates, tested their preparedness, and verified their responses in alignment with their platforms.
Before the program officially concluded, SSC President Kurt Franco gave a short message of appreciation. He thanked all candidates for their time, effort, and dedication, noting their courage and willingness to step up in service of their peers. His words served as a reminder of the value of leadership and the responsibility that comes with representing the student body.
As election day draws near, students are reminded to participate actively and responsibly in the voting process. Casting your vote is not only a right but also a duty to ensure that leaders who best embody the values, needs, and aspirations of the AMT community are chosen.
